Fortress of Solitude

Grocery pickup day is Piglet’s favorite day. I always let him have a bag to hide out in. He’ll usually stay in there for a few hours, having a think.

Trying to Kill Me

June 22, 2023 Shelly
Piglet

Every morning when I get out of the shower, I have a near death experience. I should probably get a lighter color bath mat.

Piggy

Piglet

Every damn night, Piglet rolls around on the kitchen rug and then rucks it up so he can get under it and make a blanket fort. He is the worst.

Polly went back to the vet for another round of blood work this morning. She’s up to 7 pounds 11 ounces, and her thyroid levels are in the normal range. So no more blood work until November!

Grocery day is Piglet’s favorite day. He always commandeers one of the bags for a fortress of solitude. He hung out there for a couple of hours.

It’s Shedding Season

Thomas is blowing coat, y’all. It’s hilarious, since he barely has any hair to speak of. But he has just enough Australian Cattle Dog in him that he has a tiny patch of undercoat right above the base of his tail. And that’s it. That’s the totality of his annual coat blow.

Inspector Thomas Is on the Job

April 14, 2023 Shelly

I’m almost done Ruth the pink journal on top. They last me about two months, and it should be full by the end of April. So I need to decide which notebook I’m going to use next: the light pink one with white paper or the black one with black paper?

I haven’t used black paper in ages. It might be a good excuse to get some new sparkly gel pens and markers.

Polly is feeling great and getting chubby. You can no longer feel her vertebrae or hip bones.

Polly stole Piglet’s box. So far, he doesn’t seem to have noticed. She’s gotten a lot bolder, now that she’s feeling better.
